We have stayed in many hotels over the years for hockey tournaments both 1 and 2 star but this was by far the worst. Our room had a hole around the heater unit that allowed the freezing outside air to rush in. Even with an extra plug in heater we froze all night. We were moved to another room the... More

Hello toomuchtan, I would like to thank you for your review here on trip advisor. I am however a little confused as to why such a negative review. I was the manager on duty the night that you had the issue with the heating. We took many steps to insure you were comfortable, providing you with extra blankets, offering you... More

Family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children) stayed Friday to Sunday. Older property but was clean enough. Pool area was warm and nice. We all enjoyed the pool slide also. Sauna was also a great incentive. More

I had the pleasure of staying recently. I chose this hotel because they allowed dogs and had a pool. I read the reviews so I was forewarned. The place is pretty run down. Stained carpets, old furniture, etc. my room was missing a lightbulb in the lamp! It appeared that the room was cleaned prior to our arrival, but that... More

Thevirus, Thank you for your review. We appreciate the time you took to write it. I am glad that you mostly enjoyed your stay. I was wondering if the matter of the missing light bulb was brought to the attention of the staff. We could have had it replaced for you. Also I would like to take the opportunity to... More

I had a fine experience during my two day stay. The building is a bit older with those bit older building quirks, but it only added to the charm. The heated ceramic tyle bathroom floor was worth the price by itself. Great location if you like to wander around on foot to catch the local flavor. Room was clean and... More

It looks really nice on the webpage, but in reality this hotel is past its due date. The room used to be a smoking room and there are no guatantee to recieve a non smoking room. Everything is old and stained. Broken lamps that are a safetyrisk. The deluxe breakfast is one of the worst i've had. Waffles are the... More

We selected this hotel based on reviews on another site. We had booked for three nights but left after the first night as we couldn't stomach staying at the hotel any longer. Another reviewer recently posted that he/she understood the mixed reviews. I agree with this statement; in fact, I made a similar comment to my husband. That said, I... More

We stayed at the Drawbridge Inn for two nights. We were a bit leery because of some of the reviews, but the location was very convenient for us so we decided to risk it. I couldn't understand why the hotel was getting such drastically opposing reviews but I think I understand now. In short, the hotel is old. It hasn't... More

My two nights were very good at the Drawbridge Inn. The staff was extremely helpful and considerate. Bayfest was going on and the first night was pretty loud. My floor reminded me of a dorm party. The other people on the floor were loud, but very nice and funny. I was very happy with my room. Although it was an... More
